<p>Can we have a #wg-const stream for discussing the various const eval things?</p>

<p>we could have one, I'd like to know who's heading it up and how it's structured before making a stream with the "wg" title; I guess it's not clear that all streams have to be <em>working group</em> related per se</p>

<p>it doesn't have to be a working group. If that's a requirement for our own stream, I'll do the steps to create a working group. I just want a nice place to discuss const stuff in public and still be able to have topics below that. While we could do <code>const-foo</code> and <code>const-bar</code> in <a class="stream" data-stream-id="131828" href="/#narrow/stream/131828-t-compiler">#t-compiler</a> that doesn't quite feel right</p>
